    Humvees under 15,000

    They premium is well worth it. If you score one with a fairly recent reset you are way ahead of the game in repair/upgrade time saved, and ultimately $$$. 6.5L/4 Speed/12K suspension/Fording Kit/AC/highbacks etc There really is a night and day difference between the A0/A1 Army rigs and the A2...

    Rescuing a M1025

    The ballisitc glass is pricey. You can replace it with the standard glass fairly easily. I have heard of people peeling off the plastic and having a tint shop apply a clear film, but I can not speak as to it’s efficacy.

    Rescuing a M1025

    The windshield glass is ballistic glass. The plastic helps keep chunks of glass spraying all over the occupants.

    USMC diesel motorcycle sold on GovDeals. 2003 Kawasaki KL650-A17

    How quality are the Brenton soft top kits?

    The Breton tops are good enough, but not as good as the GMA tops. I have both NOS GMA kits and new Breton Kits, and I prefer the GMA.

    what one to get?

    Turret supports are the hardest item to find, and I do not expect to see it change any time soon, if ever. There are plenty of turrets out there if you look hard enough and retiredwarhorses is selling a very nice repro c pillar.

    what one to get?

    Huh? H1s are $50K-$150K. You can buy a Humvee for $5K.

    what one to get?

    PA allows for titling and registration if the Humvee conforms ( bumpers, reverse lights, etc.). My suggestion is to get the best Humvee you can afford and worry about the accessories later. The best auction trucks available right now are M1045A2s. 6.5/4L80e. A2 components. While the GA 1045s...

    Noob's from NYC

    The updated 1097A2, 1123, 1045 etc. are definitely the way to go. I have plenty of parts and maybe even some knowledge should you require. Good luck.

    What have you done to your HMMWV today/lately

    Thanks for the tip, Fox! I ordered a couple for the derelect fleet I seem to have amassed. Can anyone confirm if the 6.2 and 6.5 share the same manifold gaskets? I have a 6.2 that is a bit too exhausty in the cabin for my tastes (and health).
